Performance really depends on a task. As an anecdote, I had a program in OCaml that did a ton of AST manipulation (for genetic programming), and after a C++ rewrite (reviewed by a much more experienced C++ dev, so there probably weren't any major fuckups), it was actually slower (~1.5 times IIRC). Why? Mostly cuz we had to use std::shared_ptr since lifetimes are unknown, and they suck balls compared to a proper GC. Also, tagged sums are faster than virtual functions, AFAIK. We've still replaced the OCaml version with the C++ one for maintainability's sake (I was the only one in the team who knew OCaml, and I used it to prototype - writing this program in C++ from the start would've made me insane), but I was actually surprised.

If you're talking about shit like HTTP servers, their performance bounds are mostly determined by whether they use modern IO APIs like io_uring. Or so I think, I'm not an expert here.

OCaml supports native compilation and its compiler is mature. All low-hanging fruits are already plucked, and if you're calling it "slowwww" I'd like to hear what languages you consider "fast".

Odin, Zig, Rust, C++, C fuck even Go makes Ocaml look very slow as you introduce a decent bit of mutable state into the equation (in my small usage of the language anyway). Even for something as simple as the game of life Ocaml is like 1/4 the speed of the listed languages. If I had to pull reason out my ass it would either be a skill issue or Ocaml's compiler sucks and copies the large arrays instead of mutating them in place. I didn't care enough about the language to find out.

python tooling sucks and while there are lots of libs, quality is through the floor.
C and C++ is mostly abhorrently bad except gdb, which is only good in the sense that it is a miracle it was able to patch over so many flaws in such shit languages. Actually tooling for C ans C++ has gotten significantly worse over time as old.faithfuls got nuked in favor of dogshit, buggy, configmazeware that change interface every sub-sub-point version. Modern C++ versions are also pure tranny garbage. Lisp has infinitely better tooling than C, C++ or Python by many miles, despite being niche. Also sbcl has a better C/C++ debugging experience than gdb.

Ocaml is faster than go in nearly all cases, typically not exceeding half C speed. It is indeed very highly optimized for functional patterns but you most definitely used it wrong (not your fault, easy to do). For example maybe you uses the stdlib that comes.with the language, whwn actually it's a stublike lib only meant to be used for the bootstrap compiler.

Okay, grant me the knowledge. What do you mean by devirtualization? I've just rechecked what it is to avoid needlessly embarrassing myself and yeah - it's an optimization that relies on _statically_ inferring that some instance of an abstract class is an instance of some particular subclass. We don't have this info at compile time if we represent AST via class hierarchy and generate the trees in runtime.

If you just messed up the terminology and meant something like "use enums with tags and cases inside function", then it would be very painful to write (and compared to OCaml, there would be a lot of manual plumbing, and the compiler wouldn't catch some dumb errors like non-exhaustive pattern-matching). Oh, std::variant? It is borderline impossible to use with recursive sum types (and nontrivial ASTs are always recursively defined) and std::visit is ugly as sin.

Re: arena allocators. Yeah, that might've improved things, but we haven't tried since we got the acceptable perf and decided not to bother further. Personally, I thought that hash consing might've been really game-changing, but again, lack of time and different priorities. Maybe I'll revisit it one day.

Also, I think it's important to compare _idiomatic_ code in different languages (although I admit that the ability to optimize the shit out of a piece of code matters as well).

Actually, that's 60 years of proof that Lisp is a meme language.
It was designed specifically for AI research. The AI fever is at an all-time high yet Lisp popularity is at an all-time low.
Fortran is even older, yet more popular.
And all this in spite of Lisp's allegedly excellent tooling.

There isn't a single lisp with good tooling. In terms of editior support you have emacs or nothing. Emacs itself is slow, bloated mess. It is packed with useless shit and when it comes to editing code it's lacking stuff that even a online repl has (like auto complete, code suggestions, lsps out of the box), so you're forced to layer more shit on top of an already massive pile of shit, which in turns slows the editor down even more. On this system (11900k, 32gb ram) it take EIGHT FUCKING SECONDS for spacemacs to fully load. In comparison Neovim with about 100 plugins = 0.3s to load.

Onto lisps itself, the two I've invested a good chunk of time in (Clojure and Racket) are fucking garbage to develop in. If you have a bug in your program the error messages are as bad as C++. There are 2 modes of error message. 2 words (Class Exception bullshit) or fucking C++ style template errors. Good luck debugging anything remotely complicated (the shitty error messages are probably why the community around these langs are in love with TDD, either build tests as large as your program or get no fucking help what so ever, just hope your tests don't have a bug in them!). Repls for both Clojure and Racket are unstable. There are no safety guards when developing and you can easily bring down your entire developer environment if you send some bad code to the repl (which is the point of it, so you can iterate and find out what works). I hope you like waiting for emacs to loads because you're going to be doing that alot.

The reason lispfags say lisp is good because the only ones left using the language are mathfags and all they do is send some equations to the repl and that's enough. They aren't building shit (case and point the guy who spams his shitty clojure code in random threads on /g/ like it's some kind of flex when all he is doing is putting stuff into hash maps and doing basic transformations, that is who is telling you lisp is good).

Thr lisp debugger alone is so good it is objectively superior in debufging compiled binaries in c libraries than any tools in cland. The repl is a millenium ahead of c debugging experience. The ability to attach. The native thread debugging contructs are unheard of anywhere else. Thr signal restart system is second to none.
Lisp workfloe often use live updates to dynamic, graphical programs, allowing realtime interactions while fully maintaining states, for the best debugging experience in existence. Lisp tooling is so good that engineers live-debugged a lisp program on a space rover in flight and saved it this way.
As for editors there are dozens of great ones and yes, vim is better than emacs for liso programming.

The screwed-up way we approach software development is because of what we have done with programming languages. With some exceptions, we have opted for optimizing the description of programs for compilers, computers, and casual human readers over providing programming media. Early on, computers were insanely slow, and so performance was the key characteristic of a system, and performance was easiest to achieve when the language required you to "pin down decisions early on." Because of this, much work was poured into defining such languages and producing excellent compilers for them. Eventually, some of these languages won out over ones more suitable for drafting and exploration both in the commercial world and in academia, and as a result it is politically difficult if not impossible to use these so-called "very dynamic" languages for serious programming and system building.

Ok but it still doesn't change the fact that the vast majority of software is procedural. C and C like languages won that war a long time ago. The only non trivial program anyone listed on here as 'functional' is a 20 year old playstation 2 game (although by your admission that could still be made in a procedural style using lisp), the rest are basically wrappers around C code. If non procedural languages are so good then show me all the important software made in it. It's been 70 years, you can't keep saying it's a good paradigm when functional programming has effectively produced nothing of value and then skirt around that point by saying just wait 2 more weeks, trust the plan, it's coming any day now. It's been 70 years, there is no wave of functional programmers coming around the corner who are going to revolutionize programming with a bunch of type masturbation etc etc. The test has been done and it's beyond math fags (who swear by this shit) to produce anything useful as a group of programmers, unless you class pretentious books about how clever they are because their solution to hello world is the most elegant ever as something useful, if that's your stance then good for you I guess.

Functional language adoption is sadly virtually non-existent, but functional style has become mainstream. Interviewing for most of the languages that are popular in the industry (Javascript/Typescript, Python, Ruby, Java/C#) you will be asked about benefits of using pure functions. Functional style is simply a saner default and modern software is often written this way.

Most of it is object oriented, a paradigm for which C is not suitable. The industry switched from C to C++ and then Java some time ago, and then from there to dynamically-typed, object-oriented programming languages like Ruby, Python, and JavaScript. And only now is there somewhat of a type renaissance with e.g. TypeScript and type annotations of Python.
>functional programming has effectively produced nothing of value
I mean, there's tons of functional JavaScript online. Jane Street uses OCaml extensively. OCaml is also used for proof assistant languages, which have produced things of value, like verified kernels and compilers. Haskell has been used for Alcatel-Lucent's narrow band radio software. Facebook uses it for a spam-fighting rule engine. And I bring up these languages because you brought up the functional paradigm specifically and Lisp code is usually not purely functional, just object oriented or procedural. The functional paradigm is just more niche, but it's not like it's completely unused; these things just don't get a lot of attention.

Oh whoops, this was unnecessary. For some reason I thought Lisp being a functional language was a topic discussion, but it's not.

>Having to deal with explicit lifetimes
In theory Rust's model had some pretty good advantages, but in practice it makes the code 10x more complex and you end up having to explicitly manage lifetimes for anything more complicated than a simple array.
We don't see people complaining about it yet because nobody is being forced to write Rust code at their jobs or in college. Soon enough it'll turn into yet another Java/C++.

And in practice rust codebases extensively use a mix of boxing and unsafe to avoid having to write lifetime annotations. If people who've been using rust from the start feel they're forced to resort to that...

Lisp is usually just 'cl', otherwise you say 'a lisp', but that is a nonsense because they're all totally different languages. Haskell is closer to clojure than lisp is. Chicken and racket have effectively nothing in common, not even the module system or library ecosystem, etc.
I agree that r5rs is better designed than lisp, but that is non sequitur. The topic was that non-mainstream languages don't have as good tooling as languages like js, python or c. Lisp has infitely better tooling than anything still alive at all. I don't know another lisp with anywhere near as good tooling, but racket has better tooling than python and js, and clojure has the same tooling as java, all of which totally defeats the argument.

>avoid having to write lifetime annotations
Right, I've seen a lot of code written in a certain way just to avoid lifetime annotations and borrow checker annoyances. If you're allocating a linked list in an array and using indices as pointers, then you've just defeated all the advantages of Rust. You can do the same in any other language, with the same safety problems that come with that style of code.

If they conform to r6rs or r7rs it's possible to write portable libraries (either with cond-expand or by loading *.chicken.sls/*.racket.sls) but I've only seen a handful of libraries do it in practice

I agree with you. In theory explicit lifetimes sounds good but in practice they increase complexity/noise/hacks to get around them. They are dogshit for iteration or exploratory work (which is probably why the majority of notable rust programs are rewrites of C programs where the domain has been solved).

Yes, because that is sadly only true in theory due to too many tiny bolts and screws being unserspecified or not specified. Also the r7rs small/large shit isn't helping.

Yeah, I see Rust's system of ownership, borrow-checking, and lifetimes and their annotations as a form of lightweight proofs, kind of like strong type systems. And there's a reason most people don't use proof-assistant languages to write programs: the more you're trying to prove, the more laborious it is to prove it. Rust just brought it down from insanely tedious and laborious to prove memory safety to manageably tedious.

Not even that, people often write code that avoids using lifetime annotations.
It's so tedious and slow that a good portion of Rust developers actively avoid using it.

It's the same story as C++ developers only choosing a subset of the language.

I’m pretty close to full agreement with his tier list, the only differences are I’d put Erlang and elixir in the second tier and I’d move TS up to necessary evil alongside JS, because JS is still a necessary evil and TS makes it moderately less retarded to use.

The author is clearly somebody who has only ever written in C derived languages. These three are in this category only because they're too different from C, not from any technical reason.

Ada's GC is an optional feature. In practice nobody uses it, instead SPARK has ownership tracking like Rust does.

More than that, there is only one case rc is better and that is when you meed more predictable latency. However, GCs can implement manual gc ops with gc pass pausing which result in the same thing.
